July 25, 2019, Thursday - Birds Sing Differently Here at Southern Theater (2 nights)

Time: 7:30pm both nights, July 25 and 26

Location: Southern Theater, 1420 Washington Ave. S.

Iraqi and American Reconciliation Project presents: Birds Sing Differently Here

Based on the true stories of 13 Iraqi-Minnesotan refugees and immigrants, Birds Sing Differently Here weaves together tales of sweetness, sorrow, grief and discovery along the way. Inventively performed in both English and Arabic, participants come together with a cast of dynamic professional actors to tell the story of a thousand olive pits and seven thousand praises; tokens of love and a chilling escape from the desert of death. Birds Sing Differently Here shares the ache of endings and the fullness of new opportunity.

Tickets are Pay What You Can on a sliding scale of $10-$20.
